The Council of Europe, exposed to a powerful Turkish-Azerbaijani lobby is about to vote a report * roughly the pro-Azeri conflict over Nagorno Karabakh. Oil and geo-strategic interests on one side, human rights on the other. Reproduction below of personalized mail that the co-chairs of CCAF sent to all MEPs.
Madam Deputy, Mr Deputy,
The CFC informed that the report grossly biased British MP Robert Walter on the situation in Nagorno Karabakh is listed on the agenda of the Plenary Assembly of the PACE January 26 and that might be adopted, given the weight of the axis Ankara-Baku in this place and entanglement of a number of interests linked to it directly or indirectly. It goes without saying that if such a possibility were to materialize, it would not only alienate the prospects of the conflict solution, but it would cast aspersions on the integrity of an institution that is in charge of promoting democratic values and not to serve as a relay to the designs of a dictatorship that does not speak its name, but we know only too authoritarian in nature, bellicose and racist.
Need we recall in this regard the many reports of human rights organizations on the turpitude of the Aliyev regime in terms of freedom of press, opinion, political prisoners, corruption nationally and internationally , election fraud, torture, etc. ? Need I remind the closure of the OSCE office and Radio Free Europe in Baku? Need we recall the statements of President Aliyev, denouncing Armenia as an “artificial state built” on Azerbaijani lands? Need we recall the militaristic bulimia his government whose budget devoted to armaments almost equivalent to the GDP of Armenia? A state whose philosopher Michel Onfray recently sorry after a tourist trip that made last summer, the “anti-Armenian racism hysterical, permanent and dangerous” that prevailed. Need we recall that it was under the blows of panturc nationalism, whose claim to the leadership of Azerbaijan – do they claim that their country with Turkey as two states for one people? – That the existence of Armenians on their historical land was reduced to a trickle? And that the events mentioned here are part of this logic? Need I remind you that when the Parliament of Nagorno-Karabakh voted and demanded through legal channels to be linked to Armenia in 1988, Baku’s response was to organize pogroms in Sumgait antiarméniens immediately to hundreds kilometers of this territory? Need we recall the famous sentence of the great Andrei Sakharov, Nobel Peace Prize, who said that the Nagorno-Karabakh is a matter of survival for Armenians and national pride business for Azerbaijan?
All these facts are of course absent from the report M.Walter, which does not even bother to mention once the “right to self-determination”, a principle which is however one of those, so-called Madrid, on which belligerents had agreed to negotiate a solution.
Drowning at will fish in a series of insignificant details, the report intends Mr Robert Walter overshadow the main issue of this conflict: the right to the existence of Armenians in an environment marked by the 1915 genocide and conditioning the impunity it has been. For it is indeed unfortunately in tacit complicity with respect to the first genocide of the twentieth century that is anchored axis Ankara / Baku. And it is in that its continuation will build its antiarméniennes strategies that today are an outrageous extension within the Council of Europe.
Nagorno-Karabakh is not the Sudetenland and Armenia is not the imperialist state that tends to portray, in small steps, Walter, formerly a member of the friendship group with Azerbaijan in the British Parliament and happy beneficiary of a Turkish national who was graciously granted him by M.Mevlüt Çavuşoğlu in May, according to the Turkish daily Sabah. Armenia and Armenians covet anyone’s territories, they aim to convert anyone to their religion or to exercise their supposed power on any community or nation whatsoever. The old people still in danger simply asking that these economic and demographic giants compared to him Azerbaijan and Turkish ally, let live and perpetuate its culture trimillénaire what remains of their ancestral lands in his feet. And it is because they defend the right to exist, yet questioned a hundred years after the 1915 genocide by the forces of Pan-Turkism, that young Armenians are killed every week on the contact line between Free Republic of Nagorno Karabakh and Azerbaijan. He goes the Council of Europe today losing its soul by endorsing the shenanigans of Mr. Aliev and his puppets seeking bail to accomplish their evil designs?
PACE would not discredit since Europe that ruin its moral foundations, qu’avilir values. IN ADDITION It would make a great disservice to the cause of peace which claims to shamelessly Walter. And it is not only the Armenians of France that claim. In a statement released on November 12 in Vienna the Minsk Group of OSCE, only legal authority for conducting the negotiation process, made the following warning: “Given the sensitive nature of the negotiations, all attempts to change the or as creating parallel mechanisms can disrupt the negotiation process and impede progress towards a settlement. “
Weaken, delegitimise see the unique way of dialogue between the two countries, as implicitly proposed by the Walter report, will only contribute to destabilize a volatile situation.
Madam Deputy, Mr Deputy,
by refusing to lend to this immoral maneuver so gross, you will defend the honor of both Parliament and the chances of peace. Please accept, Mr. MP, the expression of our highest consideration

Dear Member of Parliament
The CCAF HAS Learnt que la grossly biased report on the situations in Nagorno Karabakh Prepared by train British MP Robert Walter, is on the agenda of the Plenary Assembly of the PACE of 26 January, and May well be approved, Given the weight of the Ankara-Baku axis Within That forum and the Interweaving of a number of Directly and Indirectly connected interests. Needless to say, if this Were to happen, not only Would it push further Top away the prospect of Resolving That conflict, aim It Would aussi besmirch the integrity of an institution Whose role is to further Top democratic values, Rather than to Promote the schemes of year undeclared dictatorship, Whose authoritarian, bellicose and racist in nature is only too well Known.
We draw your attention to in this regard to the multiple postponements of human rights concernant organizations the misdeeds of the Aliev diet in terms of freedom of the press, freedom of opinion, Political Prisoners, corruption was a national and international level, electoral fraud, torture etc. . We draw your focus to the closure of the OSCE and Radio Free Europe offices in Baku. We draw your focus to the Pronouncements of President Aliyev, denouncing Armenia as a “State artificially constructed” on Azerbaijani lands. We draw your focus to the militaristic government icts of appetite, Whose arms Almost budget is equivalent to the GDP of Armenia. A State Where, as the philosopher Michel Onfray Lamented Recently, Following a tourist trip last summer He Took There, There reigns “a constant, hysterical, dangerous anti-Armenian racism.”
We Remind You That it is under the pressure of Panturkish nationalism, in the name of qui the leaders of Azerbaijan claim to act (They proclaim That Their country, together with Turkey, form two States aim only one people) que la existence of Armenians in Their historic lands HAS Become Virtually extinct. And events Mentioned here que la la même rationale-have. We Remind You That, When the Parliament of Nagorno-Karabakh Voted and Applied, in according with the law of the land, to be attached to Armenia in 1988, Baku’s response Was to time immediately organize anti-Armenian pogroms in Sumgait, Hundreds of miles away That area from. We Remind you of the famous statement by the winner of the Nobel Peace Prize, the great Andrey Sakharov, Who Declared conflict in Nagorno que la-Karabakh Was a matter of survival for the Armenians, of national pride for Azerbaijan.
All thesis facts are of course missing from Mr Walter’s report, qui Does not take the trouble to mention, Even ounce, the “right to self-determination”, Even Though it is one of the so-called “Madrid principles”, qui the Agreed we HAD belligerent party as a basis for Negotiating a solution. Burying the issue in a mass of irrelevant detail, Mr Robert Walter’s report sets out to obfuscate the issue at hand stake in this conflict: the Armenians’ right to exist in an environment shaped by the genocide of 1915 and Impunity caractérisé by ict. For, sadly, it is tacit collusion Their Careers in the first genocide of the 20th century That Binds together the Ankara-Baku axis. And it is the intent to continue this genocide icts That Generates anti-Armenian strategies, qui are now shamefully penetrating the Council of Europe Itself.
Nagorno-Karabakh is not the Sudetenland, and Armenia is not the imperialist State subtly Depicted by Mr Walter, train member of the All Party Parliamentary Group on Azerbaijan of the British Parliament, and the privileged recipient of Turkish citizenship kindly bestowed by Mr. Davotoglu last May, selon the Turkish newspaper Sabah. Armenia and Armenians do not covet anyone’s territory, They Do not aim to convert anyone to Their religion, nor to exercise power over Their Alleged Any community or nation Whatsoever. This ancient people Constantly threatened This is with death. It only aims Asks economic and demographic que la Giants Compared with Itself and Its That Azerbaijan are Turkish ally allow it to live and perpetuate icts three-thousand year old culture, in what remains of ancestral lands icts. And It Is Because They Are Defending That right to exist, qui est still Questioned by Pan-Turkist influences one hundred years partner after the 1915 genocide, That young Armenians ares currently being white killed every week on the touch line entre the free Republic of Nagorno-Karabakh and Azerbaijan.
Will the Council of Europe now lose icts soul by ratifying the schemes of Mr. Aliev and his puppets, Who seek icts moral backing in order to carry out Their sinister AIMS? Would not this end only in the PACE Europe discrediting, destroying the moral foundations icts, icts and debasing values.It aussi Would be extremely detrimental to the causes of peace, qui Mr Walter brazenly claims to serve. France’s Armenians are not alone in this view Taking. In a statement Issued is 12 November in Vienna, the Minsk Group of the OSCE, qui is the only party Legally empowered to conduite the negotiation process, HAS Issued The Following warning: “Given the sensitive extremely kind of the negotiations, any Attempt to change Their gold size to create parallel Mechanisms May disturb the negotiation process and hinder progress Towards a settlement. “Weakening, Even delegitimising the only channel for dialogue entre les two countries, as the Walter report implicitly Suggests, can only contribuer to destabilize an explosive already position .
Dear Member of Parliament, by Refusing to lend yourself to Such blatant and immoral manipulation, you Will Be Both Defending the honor of Parliament and giving peace a chance.
